As well as you carved the roads to Muenster I thought you might have been seasoned professional.  [thumbsup]

She is.......

I knew that, she's just to be modest. I saw the pic of her on the triple 9 doing a nice apex photo op. Were you smiling under that tinted shield Cher?

[laugh]  Y'all are too much!


But the real question is, will Lyndy's bike be ready for the track day on Saturday?!?!

I'm going to put the stock exhaust back on and see how it goes  :-\

If I'm on my motorbike, I'm always smiling  [moto]

good luck.....

Lyndy, I was thinking about that yesterday; putting the stock cans back on could make a real difference.  I'll be curious to hear how this all turns out... Your bike is way too nice to be out of commission  :-X

Maybe you could try covering up half of the air filter and see how it runs.  See if the burble goes away, gets worse, or shifts in RPM range.

I like Ron's idea. Cheap, easy and possibly very effective. [thumbsup]

I recommend nitrous  [thumbsup] 

Bet it don't bog down.   ;D Possible cheaper than Randy overhauling it for 5 hours.......

has the airbox been chopped?


Completely--the open box is something we discussed on one of the runs for possibly contributing to the lean condition. 

Lyndy--if covering part of the box helps, you are more than welcome to use my cover at the track (it should fit, yes ?). Since my bike will be parked  :-\, I will not be needing it.  ;)

How'd the plugs look?

I'm sure they'll tell you that the bike is waay lean with the open airbox and free-er breathing exhaust.

I bet if you put the stock lid and cans back on, it'll be a lot happier.  That or get new jets that will accommodate the extra air mass that's entering/exiting the motor.

I just finished putting the stock cans back on - now I can't get it to start   :'(

It was hard to start after Randy adjusted the idle but jeez how long should I keep trying it??

how long have you been trying to start it?  the battery may have gotten weak with all the cranking its doing.

take the SC1000 for trackday [evil]

IMO i don't think swapping cans would change that much to where it wouldn't start
